"When you start out as a rookie, you're going to start out with the short fade, the short little hair. Then as he gets older you're going to see him go with the bald look, then the mustache in the middle years, and his body will bulk up a little bit as he slowly becomes the older Jordan.

He already looks bulky in his rookie body, how much more bulk are they talking about? The 2K skeletons need a revamp to accurately portray weight to physique...

Im going to say this one time and once only

I can't say I agree with the first portion. The addition of classic teams (and not so incidentally, Michael Jordan) does a ton for me in terms of gameplay. I was very satisfied with 2K10 and I enjoy using current teams, but the option to use classic teams only multiplies replayability for me. I suppose I'm looking for simulation, but I'd include classic simulation in that fold as well. I love using real teams from years past.

However, I'm really with you on the Slam Dunk Competition. My belief has always been that 2K placed it at Rucker to differentiate from what Live had already implemented. I think we've passed the point now of being accused of copying an idea from Live and it should be okay to just go ahead and put it in an NBA arena in the name of simulation. Let's make the dunk contest and three point shootout during All-Star Weekend I say.

Edit: Apologies if above is off-topic. I responded as 23's post was being written.

I was thinking, maybe the Jordan picture is just mislabeled as "Rookie Jordan". The earliest Jordan we're supposed to have access to is the 1986 vs. Boston version, yes? In that case, the jersey would indeed be accurate. I'd bet this picture is supposed to be '86 Jordan.

LOL... have fun with that.

How different would the rookie Jordan look anyway? That series against Boston was in his second year.

It's more of people eating up anything Jordan than anything 2k. I sent that MJ Legend article to people at my office who don't even play video games and never heard of 2ksports. I got a call at my desk less than a minute later saying they were going to buy that game because they love MJ. MJ still has pull.........

Hey Beluba, I hope you guys fix the legs from some player models..... because it seems like you guys have the same problem as last year..... the legs either look too short or too bulky, Michael Jordan's legs should be skinnier and longer..... i hope you guys at 2k notice this....

you are saying that as if you dont want more control over your player...

23 i have seen you go into multiple NBA Elite threads saying the same stuff towards elite so i was just stating my opinion just as you do
